This is very unfortunate, because Jack works as hard as any musician out there.
He is terrific with the fans, which is exactly what you want from your endorsees. For someone who definately stuck with Jackson through the years and was a great asset, being dropped makes for more bad PR for the new Artist Relations guys.

I just noticed that there is a pic of you in my Jackson catalouge. How did you manage that? This may be a dumb thing to say, but I have no idea who you are , I mean as far as if your in a band I've heard of or something. [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img]
Madness Reigns......... In the Hall of the Mountain King!
I met Jack at the winter NAMM show. I was on my way out one day when I heard this guy just tearing it up on an Egnater amp. He was kneeling down in front of it and his face was not well seen. I thought to myself: "Wow! that guy is really good!". So walked up to listen some more and I thought I sort of recognized him so I said "Jack?" and he turnred around to look my way. Very friendly. Got some pictures taken with him as well as his autograph on the page in the Jackson catalog that features him, then I gave him one of my Jackson calendars [img]images/icons/cool.gif[/img]
Did I mention the guy can shred!!! [img]graemlins/headbang.gif[/img]
I got to know Jack by meeting and hangin' with him at length several times ....even own some of his old out of print metal cds including his old stuff...
..He's a very nice dude ...silly, but nice!!!
You talk about "funny faces" while your playin' live ....Jack takes the Golden Globe Award!!!!!!
He's gotta a pretty cool tone from that Engl.....
His best stuff IMO is Bronx Casket Co. ......he just fits that gig perfectly!!!!

The dude just asked a question. No need to be a dick! I've seen you in my catalog and also wondered the same thing. Maybe some people would like to know more about your playing and band and support you... or do you not care about fans and selling cds? Maybe you'll be dropped from Jackson's endorsee list soon, too.
I feel my soul go cold... only the dead are smiling.
Someone needs to fire the A&R department at FMIC, Jack has gone out of his way for years to support Jackson, and they basically told him he had to start all over and requalify as an endorsee.
